New Year’s Eve at the Brooklyn Brewery

There are several New Year’s Eve parties throughout the city, at places like Alewife, Standings, and Beer Authority. The most mouth-watering option is probably the Brooklyn Brewery’s “Smokehouse Soiree” as the brewery will be serving food from Mable’s Smokehouse (just down the block) with a beer lineup that features many brews from the Worshipful Company of Brewers series. The list features some great roasty beers perfect for cold weather like Winter is Coming (an oatmeal stout), Dial “M” for Mild, and There Will be Black, the most recent Brewmaster’s Reserve beer. Tickets are $100 and includes open bar and food from 9 p.m. to 1:30 a.m.
